Afterhours with Professor Randy H. Ewoldt

Randy H. Ewoldt is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mechanical Science and Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He has Ph.D. and S.M. degrees from MIT, and a B.S. degree from Iowa State, all in Mechanical Engineering. Before joining Illinois, he held a post-doctoral fellowship at the University of Minnesota. At Illinois, his research group studies rheology, fluid mechanics, and design of complex fluids; in particular, this includes yield stress fluids, polymer gels, biological materials, and large- and medium-amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS/MAOS). He serves on the editorial boards for the Journal of Non-Newtonian Fluid Mechanics and Physics of Fluids, and regularly lectures at rheology short courses in the USA and Europe.
